BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 33% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Week 15 was one with several surprises for the Carolina Panthers, as the struggling unit traveled to Seattle and upset the Seahawks. The Panthers also had not one, but two running backs in D'Onta Foreman and Chuba Hubbard who each rushed for 74 yards in the win.
While Foreman has remained Carolina's lead back in recent weeks, Hubbard has carved out a nice role for himself in this suddenly run-heavy Panthers offense. Hubbard has now toted the rock 31 times across Carolina's last two games.
The Oklahoma State product looked sharp in Week 14. He notched 74 yards on the ground, while also tallying three catches for 25 yards. Hubbard also found the end zone for the first time since Week 7.
Foreman's excellent play has likely scared many fantasy managers away from Hubbard, but it appears that there's plenty of work to go around in Carolina's run-centric scheme. The Panthers attempted a gargantuan 46 rushes in Week 14 and Hubbard should continue to play a significant role in the attack against Pittsburgh in Week 15.
Fantasy managers that are dealing with injuries at the RB position or that need help at the FLEX spot can look to nab Hubbard where he's still available.
